The annual Campbell-Sevey Holiday Party is an event our employees and their spouses never want to miss. It’s always full of great food and lots of laughs, but this year it went a step further. Our Holiday Party tradition started in late 70’s when it was hosted at an employee’s home. Bob Sevey used to […]
Fuel is used for many things across the United States by both manufacturers and consumers. What percentage of fuel burned by U.S. manufacturers is consumed to raise steam? 45% 38% 33% 27% The answer… 1. 45% – Over 45% of all the fuel burned by U.S. manufacturers is consumed to raise steam. Steam is used […]
Deaeration has proven to inhibit corrosion in steam systems while also providing the added benefit of pre-heating steam boiler feedwater. In our latest video we illustrate how a typical tray type deaerator works. For more information on deaerators and how they could benefit your steam system contact the team at Campbell-Sevey.
This video, the first in a series from QMax, explains heat transfer in an easy-to-understand whiteboard video. To learn more about heat transfer, steam tracing or how to optimize your steam system, contact the team at Campbell-Sevey.
When steam transfers its heat in a manufacturing process, heat exchanger, or heating coil, it reverts to a liquid phase called condensate. An attractive method of improving your power plant’s energy efficiency is to increase the condensate return to the boiler. Returning hot condensate to the boiler makes sense for several reasons. As more condensate […]

We are excited to share the news that Bob Sevey, former owner of Campbell-Sevey, was recently inducted into the Minnesota Archery Hall of Fame. In 1956, after having received his engineering degree and then spending time in the service, Bob Sevey began working for his dad at The Hoyt Sevey Company. He always had an […]
In every steam system, energy loss occurs throughout the production, distribution, and final use. Although there is 100% energy going in the system in the form of fuel, the average energy in the form of actual energy used is 60% on average – 80% at best. During the process there are potential boiler system energy […]
